this is what shows when i try to pack the map. i think it has to much of something, brushes maybe?
Those areaportal errors mean they're leaking. The Occluder errors might be able to be fixed by selecting all of them and replacing all instances of Skip with Nodraw.
Both Areaportals and Occluders tend to be messed up by decompilers. I know in the Upward decompile on this site, there's an areaportal at the back of Blu spawn that's messed up, so check for that for a start.

how can i easily select all of the areaportals and occluders and turn them into nodraw? or does it need to be done manually?
You can go to visgroups and turn off everything except those, and drag select them all
You're NOT supposed to turn them into nodraw - replace only faces that are textured with "HINT" with nodraw, and that should only apply to Occluders.
For Areaportals, some are broken and aren't inside the gaps they should fill. You need to move these back into place or remake them in bad cases.

Occluders are weird and will almost always say that there are compile issues. It doesn't actually break anything. You can safely ignore them.
Areaportals can't be decompiled perfectly which is why you are getting errors with them. You will need to learn how areaportals work and fix every single one manually.
